Tune of the Day: Légèrement by Boismortier

from “Petites sonates à deux flûtes traversières”

This is the opening movement of the tenth sonata from a collection of 12 “little sonatas” for two flutes by the prolific French Baroque composer Joseph Bodin de Boismortier. It is unusual in that it starts in a major key (G major) and ends in its parallel minor key (G minor).
